Weekend Getaway: Hotel Monteverdi in Tuscany

Located in the heart of the 900-year-old village called Castiglioncello del Trinoro, Hotel Monteverdi encompasses four buildings and offers twelve boutique hotel rooms, consisting of 6 luxury rooms and 6 larger suites. Each hotel room is completely unique and aesthetically remarkable. The rooms are a masterful blend of the ancient and modern. Working with local craftsman, Ilaria Miani, a Rome-based designer with a passion for restoring, renovating and breathing life to ancient properties, infused each room of Monteverdi with sophistication and style.

This picture perfect boutique hotel and spa is situated on a hill overlooking a vineyard and rolling hills, accented with wood-beamed ceilings, an 18th-century copper tub, private gardens, and views of the Val d’Orcia hilltop towns. The villas are ideal for families, who want to spend the holidays in Tuscany, but also want all the comforts of home. In the summer months there are mainly artists-in-residence, who exhibit their works of art. There are also many music festivals, especially jazz and classical. If you’re in the need of a secret getaway to start summer 2016 on a high note, don’t miss this destination! Go with your loved one, forget the world, for a few days at least.
